Hi I have attepted to install a cgi photo album on my site (setup on my suse 10 server) however whenever I try to go to that album IE attempts to download the cgi file. http://www.thebigman.co.uk/cgi-bin/mem_photo/index.cgi If I leave out the index.cgi part I get a 403 error. I have tried with other test cgi files and the same thing happens I am not very clued up on this so any help as always is appreciated. Cheers
Can you post your vhost configuration here? Do you have something similar to Code: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /path/to/cgi-bin/ AddHandler cgi-script .cgi AddHandler cgi-script .pl in it? Also have a look here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/cgi.html
Is it the Vhosts_ispconfig.conf file you are talking about? If so the the Vhost section for this site is: also after reading the link you supplied I added This did not solve the issue, but now does mean I can allow cgi in any folder which is what I was after as well, so thanks for that it helped a bit. I have also ran: Is my path to perl wrong? I have tried searching through the web and forums for days now but cannot see anything, maybe I am just searching for the wrong thing Cheers
Ah, you're using ISPConfig... You must put your CGI scripts into /home/www/web2/cgi-bin/ and make them executable, then it should work out of the box. If you see this: ^M at the end of your lines it means you saved the file with Windows linebreaks, not with Unix linebreaks. Save the file with Unix linebreaks (some editors on Windows allow you to do this) and try again.
